WELCOME

If you've participated in the Eratosthenes Experiment, please Submit your Data. If not, don't worry, there will be more Events in the future. Leave your email and be informed.

This year the experiment took place on the 19th of March in Europe and North Africa (due to the fact that on the 20th of March we had in that area a solar eclipse) and on the 20th of March for the rest of the world, on the equinox day. Thus, for your matchup –if no other schools could be found on the same longitude- you could consider the existence of a virtual school on the equator with experimental data 0 (shade of a one-meter stick measured at a certain time). This way you could also have an accurate outcome by conducting the experiment by yourself.
